    Yes you can efile still, you must use the following procedure; when your software asks you to enter your prior year AGI.

    Enter “0” (zero) for the original Prior Year AGI. Do not leave this field blank. However, the Prior Year PIN/Electronic Filing PIN field should be left blank.

    You should be able to efile using this procedure, when you have not filed at all during the prior year.
